Wyoming Caucus Thread

by BooMan
Sat Mar 8th, 2008 at 03:05:32 PM EST

Wyoming is caucusing today and there are actually 13 delegates up for grabs (news outlets say it's 12). Obama needs over 64% to get a 8-4 split. Otherwise, he'll get a 7-5 split. But the winner will get a bonus delegate later on, so it will be either a 9-4 or 8-5 split. With 74% of the vote counted, Obama only has fifty-eight percent of the vote. Cheyenne County still has to come in, but it doesn't look like Obama will get the 9-4 split.

So....Obama will pick up two more delegates today with one extra special bonus delegate to be added on later. Ka-ching!!

Big news. Where did you read it?

I assume the change was based on certification of provisional ballots, or something like that.

Or maybe they counted the 100,000 votes that hadn't been counted in LA.
